Well my coupe has been sat in my garage for nearly 2 years and rarely seen daylight. Got it Mot'd last month when my other car needed some work. Got it back out and cleaned it for the Mitcar event and now fallen in love with it again. I had lost interest in it. Now after seeing some pretty clean engine bays at the show that area is going to be the next to get a look over on mine hopefully.
Just brought some nearly new fog lights for it to swap out for my pebblle dashed ones as well laugh

Reading posts like yours Steve is exactly what owning a Coupe is all about.
They're such a unique car and we fall in and out of love with them all the time, they suffer niggles and neglect when they're out of site and then all it takes is a sunny weekend drive and the smile returns along with the reasons we love them so much.

My LE was only used for 800 miles during 2012-2015 and with the 18 inch rims and koni suspension I wasn't enjoying myself.
This August I clocked up 2400 miles and there were more smiles/miles then pot holes so like yourself I'm really enjoying my Coupe again smile

Too right, my VT6 sits in the garage out of sight in the bad weather with another little job to do whilst I use my work van. Thoughts of flogging it flit through my head.
Then I take it for a canter around North Devon main roads and I wonder what the hell I was thinking.
